Wash Day & A Top Knot Bun!

Today's wash day was quite long simply because the weather sucked and I was in no rush! I'm sure y'all will also notice some random products coming out of the wood works and the reason is because I'm tired of products that I don't care for taking up space in my stash so I'm on a mission to 'use em up!' Here's what I did...

Prepooed with my VO5 moisture milks conditioner mixed with Hemp Seed Oil on the length of my hair and my tropical isle red pimento oil on my scalp for about an hour.

Style: After rocking a bun with my own hair and then a lovely flexi rod set for a few days I opted to create a top knot bun using kanekalon hair. I plan to rock this style until my midweek cowash (unless I see fit to skip although I doubt it) and will redo it then. As for moisturizing and sealing I will make a moisture mist using a bit of aloe vera juice mixed with water, my giovanni direct leave in, and coconut oil. Basically my daily product in the form of a sprtiz to keep my tresses moisturized. The great thing about this style is 1) Super quick in the morning 2) Ultimate protection for my ends, which means length retention!

Great news! SheaMoisture Raw Shea Butter Retention Shampoo is on sale @ Walgreen's for $4.99. I know that I said that I wasn't going to buy anymore shampoo but for that price I might make myself a liar!
